I feel for you guys that are forced to run under car exhaust, but for me, somehow it just aint a Cobra unless your blowing your gas out the side....that and when the cockpit fills full of smoke from a burnout!!

I simply wondered if it could be done. That way we could keep the sidepipe look, which is my personal taste, and not burn the skin off of someone when they get out of the car, or an innocent kid that walks up to see the car in a parking lot and ends up remembering it for the rest of his life. If I ever get the Olthoff guys to build me a new car I will have it done that way. Might kill some of the resale, but if I do build another, its a lifetime car.

Ken, here's some pictures showing the car at the Dr. Gas shop in July of 2005. The first pic is the system off the car:



Here's a few more:








As you can tell from the earlier thread pics, I've made a few changes to the car after Dr. Gas finished the exhaust system. Since the side pipe cutouts needed to be filled anyway and some paint work was required, I went from Dark Highland Green to Viper Red. I also rewired the car, added Halibrand wheels, and went from a Flaming River rack to a power rack. Also insalled a Hydroboost power brake system.
